What we used to call dad rock is now grandad rock. Pull Me Under is 30 years old, it's dad rock by definition.

I knew they'd be together on tour, but Devin used to have a thing about not performing songs that he didn't write or contributed to, so it's nice that he joined the fun. There are videos of the last song from different gigs, and LaBrie's performances are very hit and miss (mostly miss), while Devin just gets better the more they perform together. I guess it's not fair to compare, since LaBrie had to struggle to keep his voice after the injury, while Devin expanded his range, and his voice only improved with years. Still, it's night and day when they are together on stage. Devin is simply one of the best live performers out there.

Portnoy's been in so many things since his departure, I don't know if he's still got that Dream Theater spark in him. It's definitely going to be an interesting album, though.

BigFactory posted:Is it, though? The band will probably feel bad about trying to reign in any creative input from Portnoy, so I expect it to be interesting but not necessarily good.

Vulture Culture posted:this would be a big step up from their last decade and a half of material, which is neither good nor interesting They were also wrong not to like pastiches of Muse.

If we're talking Canadians who could replace LaBrie, I'll add Sebastian Bach.

SgtScruffy posted:Funfacts, Portnoy toured briefly in “Mike Portnoys Shattered Fortress” specifically so he could play it live. I always felt like he was excited to play it all in a row live when it was finished, but their last tour after it was completed was opening for Maiden so they never got the chance Huh, I missed that somehow. They had a pretty good lineup, apparently.

His concept album trilogy was weird and questionable, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. RIP.

strap on revenge posted:some absolute bops on Mildlife's new album which came out today I am so glad there are prog bands that still make actual music videos instead of glorified visualisers and AI-generated garbage.

Vulture Culture posted:That project broke up a few years ago Turns out I'm not up to date on my Tate lore, huh. According to wiki, though, he hired new band members in 2018 and they're still doing live shows under that name. It's all very confusing.
